Dibble Family Farm roadside farm stand
We start our tour of Route 20 in West Winfield cruising East. The first thing we spot is a roadside farm stand (Richard is always on the lookout for them) The Dibble Family Farm offers sweet, delicious organic strawberries and peas. They also have firewood and worms for your family camping trip!
Back in the 1940s
and 50s in East
Utica there was
a market on every corner. Today, William Milham, at Milham's Market on Rutger St., carries on a 3rd generation tradition, although he's had to adapt to the changing community. He says onions are a part of almost every meal for Russians and Bosnians. He's sold 15, 000 pounds this season!
